Rotary Club tours Oxford College

The Covington Rotary Club recently toured Emory College at Oxford, learning of its history, renovation projects and new buildings.

The club’s members started at the historic Seney Hall, one of the five buildings constructed before 1900. The tour then went through the new library, which is open to the public, over to the spot of the new science building set to start construction in May 2014 and end in late 2015/early ’16 and finished in the college’s dining hall.

Emory College at Oxford enrolls 920 students annually, and accepts about 480 new students from applicant pools of around 7,600 each year.
